Tenuta dell'Ornellaia 1997, a red Bolgheri Superiore, draws its character from Tuscan soils. This oak-aged blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc offers notes of prune and licorice. Its velvety, mineral palate pairs beautifully with game and aged cheeses.
Tenuta dell'Ornellaia
Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, this iconic estate combines winemaking tradition with modernity on the sun-drenched lands of Bolgheri.
- Terroir : Gravelly and clay-limestone soils on the Tuscan coast, bathed in Mediterranean breezes, give the wines distinctive minerality and rare elegance.
- Winemaking : Bordeaux-inspired blends, carefully aged in oak barrels to reveal pure fruit and the complexity of the terroir.
Tasting notes for Tenuta dell'Ornellaia Ornellaia 1997
- Appearance : A deep garnet-red color with brick-red highlights and silky depth.
- Nose : Aromas of candied prune, black licorice and dried rosemary intertwine with notes of faded flowers and a saline touch.
- Palate : A velvety opening, supported by lively acidity and a tannic structure that remains present, while chalky nuances and a long, spicy finish reveal the full tension of this fine wine.
Serve at 16-18°C in a Bordeaux glass to fully release its aromas.
1997 vintage
A vintage marked by ideal climatic balance, producing wines with ripe fruit and harmonious structure, typical of great Tuscan years.
- Aging potential : At its peak now, this wine is ready to enjoy without delay (store in a cool cellar, away from light and vibrations).
